"Lindsay is an excellent director. She has a great theater sense. She understands what needs to be done to make the play a successful one ... She is also well versed in the design elements of the play, and made major contributions in the areas of sound, lights, sets, and costuming."
John Higgins - Theater Director
"I had the opportunity to observe her recently as she taught a group of 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders in a creative drama workshop. The children were captivated by the activity, 'machines,' a game designed to develop vocal and movement skills. I was impressed by Lindsay’s side-coaching during the activity and her ability to keep the children focused and on-task."
Thalia McMillion - Director of Derby Summer Arts
"I’ve never met a more appealing, funny, and capable young teacher. It is her combination of communication skills and intelligence that makes Jag so strong. She understands the importance of connecting with people and knows how to guide discussions with her students and assert her role as the teacher. Students enjoy working with her, because she is a delightful combination of serious and playful."
Rob G. Richards - Phillips Exeter Academy
"Above all, Lindsay is a marvelous team player who brings out the best in her peers through genuine collaboration. She has great people skills; she listens, she is generous and caring, she knows when and how to compromise, and she has a talent for bringing people together."
Ellen W. Kaplan - Professor, Smith College
"When given a concrete task, Jag (a.k.a. Ms. Jag, as the students call her) jumps in with her usual upbeat attitude. She's self-starting, self-motivated, always looking for creative solutions, but never overstepping- she always keeps everyone in the loop- making sure she's heading in the direction intended."
Linda Luca - Phillips Exeter Academy
"Overall then, what I see in Lindsay is a very bright young woman with a wide variety of very useful skills to offer and a personal manner that is so warm and engaging, others want to learn from her. "
Sarah Ream - Phillips Exeter Academy
"She is a tireless team player who is always willing to pitch in to help anyone. When she spots a need she’ll be there to deal with it. Her dependably positive attitude is an asset to any production she is part of."
